This episode's co-editor Stephanie Vie and I went on a quest to learn about the creative ways that teachers of writing and rhetoric are using games in the classroom. We found ourselves discussing gaming identity and how games can intersect the work we do in *any* class, and we got lots and lots of specific pedagogical suggestions, some involving wrestlers and naked puppets. You'll hear interviews and segments involving Samantha Blackmon, Kevin Moberly, Phill Alexander, Matt Beale, and Jason Custer. In other words: quest completed. Tune in next month for part 2 of our discussion of games and teaching.
